The message for the beloved Children of God is - Hope !

Good morning,

The message for the beloved Children of God is - Hope !

 

The first question is, where is your hope? Is your hope in your money, or the stock market, or your job, or is your hope in mankind? The bible tells us to put our hope and trust in the Lord. Read Psalm 25:1-6,Unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day. Remember, O Lord, thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.The bible tells us to seek the Kingdom of God first, read Matthew 6:33, But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Faith is our confidence that we will receive the things we hoped for, where as our hope is our desired wish that we seek after. If our confidence is evidently visible in the way we live, then our confidence is living faith. If we voiced our confidence where as the evidence is not seen in our lives, then our confidence is dead faith. If our hope is to inherit the kingdom of God, if the source of our confidence is God, and if we walk in the ways of God to achieve his kingdom, then we have Godly faith, which is the faith of the Bible.The bible tells us to trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding, but acknowledge Him always. Read Proverbs 3:5-7,Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil. According to the biblical usage, hope is an indication of certainty. “Hope” in Scripture means “a strong and confident expectation.”There are a number of warnings in Scripture against putting our hope in anything other than the Lord because these things will leave us ashamed, frustrated, disappointed, and in ruin.The bible tells us about having false hope, read Proverbs 11:6-8,The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perisheth.The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead. Our hope depends of knowing and trusting the word of God. Heavenly Father, our hope and trust is in you Lord. We desire to please you Lord, to do your will. We need your protection and help from the evil one of this world. You are our strength Lord, our strong tower, we depend on your Holy Ghost power. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
